From one strange ‘cult’ to another: NXIVM whistleblower had served in another sect, IDs doctor as member who branded women - New York Daily News
This wasn’t his first rodeo.
The whistleblower testifying about a “sex cult” posing as a self-help organization said he was a member of another controversial sect before signing on with the NXIVM group.
Mark Vicente, under questioning from prosecutors, also described pictures from a NXIVM retreat in Fiji, and identified a woman in one photo as the doctor recruited to brand NXIVM loyalists. He said Dr. Danielle Roberts, who posed in a group shot with several bikini-clad members in a resort pool, was “the person who actually did the branding.”
But when Vicente, who has been dishing dirt about NXIVM leader Keith Raniere, was asked about Ramtha, the “enlightenment school” that held Vicente’s allegiance before jumping ship, he was hardly as eager to spill any secrets
I don’t know how much I can say,” an uneasy Vicente told jurors hearing evidence at Raniere’s conspiracy and sex trafficking trial Thursday in Brooklyn Federal Court.
”There may be legal issues for me.”
Judge Nicholas Garaufis reminded Vicente that he swore to tell the truth when he took the witness stand.
“You’re under oath,” Garaufis said. “This is a court proceeding.”
Vicente went on to describe Ramtha founder J. Z. Knight’s leadership, which drew in such celebrities as Linda Evans and Shirley MacLaine. Knight, who claims to channel a 35,000-year-old warrior, says she blends ancient wisdom, the power of consciousness and science in her teachings.
Critics, including the Southern Poverty Law Center, say she’s a hate teacher who disparages Catholics, gays, Mexicans and Jews.
Vicente, under cross examination, claimed Knight put him in danger when she said in front of 1,000 “zealous” followers that “I would die a horrible death.”
Raniere “teased” Vicente about his Ramtha ties when he first joined NXIVM, saying he needed to be “deprogrammed,” Vicente said.

Raniere’s lawyers appeared to be using Vicente’s past “cult” membership to discredit his testimony about Raniere’s group.

It turns out that many of the same kind of people who fell for NXIVM also fell for dangerous cults like Ramtha. Before Mark Vicente became enraptured by NXIVM and Keith Raniere, he was a follower of Ramtha,
a cult run by a woman named JZ Knight. Vicente even filmed a movie about JZ Knight and Ramtha titled, “What the Bleep Do We Know”.
